Chapter 269: Brilliant Results

"The interception of the swarm is complete, Goliath is armed with mecha clusters, and climbs the slopes on both sides according to the C-41 tactical plan!" At the same time as the Fifth Defense Circle blew itself up, Jim Renault ordered at the same time.

Due to the heroic sacrifice of 70 pillboxes and 280 machine gunners in the 5th Defense Ring, a backwall several kilometers wide was set on fire at the mouth of the canyon at the base of the backwater station. And exploded a huge ravine in place, making the insect tide unable to move forward for a while.

This plan was originally an alternative for Jim Renault, and it would only be used as a last resort.

In fact, high-explosive bombs and high fuel were placed in each bunker in the bunker complex. This is a means of finally ending up with the swarm, and once a certain defense circle falls under the attack of the swarm, it will be detonated, which can be said to be the most tragic way.

Among them, the Fifth Defense Circle, as the bunker defense group on the outside of the canyon mouth, is undoubtedly the most dangerous, and Jim Renaud also considered that the swarm might adopt the strategy of ignoring the bunker group, so when arranging personnel, he openly and honestly explained the danger of the Fifth Defense Circle.

But thousands of machine gunners did not hesitate to stand up, and in the end, Jim Reynolds singled out 280 people who had no relatives and no worries as members of the Fifth Defense Ring Death Squad.

Jim Renaud's heart was bleeding as he made this plan.

In the original StarCraft story, Jim Reynolds is a benevolent commander who values the lives of his soldiers.

But at this time, everyone is hanging by a thread, and it is not nice to say. The hope of all people wanting to live is extremely slim, and as long as there is the slightest deviation in the plan, then it is only the difference between early death and late death.

So he could only send these 280 machine gunners to the Fifth Defensive Circle.

Some people may say. Since it is just a high-explosive bomb to block the mouth of the canyon, why not use methods such as remote detonation, but use living people to use this suicidal method to execute.

But understand that at the time of Jim Reynolds' plans, no one knew what kind of offensive posture the Bug Tide would take.

If the Worm Tide does not ignore the bunker, it is the same as the previous 17 waves of Worm Tide. If you gradually advance and destroy one pillbox after another, then it is undoubtedly a foolish thing not to send machine gunners to defend in the bunkers.

That's not a second longer than that. As far as the backwater station base, which has more hope of survival, is undoubtedly a suicidal act, and Jim Renaud naturally can't do it.

So in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Jim Renault can only follow the traditional tactics first. Set up a bunker formation to block the attack of the insect tide.

But if the insect tide tries to take advantage of the huge numerical advantage. Bypassing the Fifth Bunker Group by crushing and ignoring the method can only be used to achieve the same end.

Because the Fifth Bunker Group is the last barrier located on the outside of the bunker mouth, it has no advantage in the terrain, and once it falls into the insect tide, it will definitely die. Rather than this, it is better to die with the swarm, and maximize the tactical value of the plan.

Jim Reynolds knew this very well, and understood that only by doing so could their deaths be more worthwhile.

But really give this order. But it made Jim Renaud feel extremely painful.

Although he still seemed to be extremely calm and commanding at the moment, no one could imagine the pain in his heart at this time.

In the face of such a disparity in strength, the offensive and defensive battles. Even Jim Reynolds could not guarantee the safety of all, it was impossible not to make sacrifices.

Although he had tried his best to rack his brains to minimize casualties as much as possible. However, one by one, the lives were sacrificed because of his tactics, and he paid for his life.

This made him feel extremely guilty and powerless......

As the personal architect of tactics and the supreme commander of the battlefield, Jim Reynolds was the one who felt the pain the most.

He looked at the real-time casualties on the battlefield that were scrolling on the projection inside the commander's combat armor, and said to himself while giving an order: "Someone once said that it is a tragedy to die a person, but when there are more people who die, it becomes a statistic." ”

"I don't agree with that!"

Jim Reynolds looked at the rolling death toll, clenched his fists and said, "They're not counting!" They are all living beings! ”

"The tragedy is irreparable, and all I can do now is make their sacrifice more valuable! So that more people can survive because of this! Jim Reno's gaze reinstated!

At this time, the situation on the battlefield has been reversed by 180 degrees!

The number of insects that had poured into the canyon and was about to completely crush the fire network had reached 400,000!

I am afraid that in a few more seconds, the influx of some alien insects will become the last straw that breaks the camel's back, and the insect swarm can completely destroy the defenders in the canyon with a overwhelming force

However, the self-explosion at the critical moment of the Fifth Defense Circle, the huge sacrifices they made, but also reaped huge rewards far beyond their imagination!

At this time, the wall of fire and the huge ravine collapsed, completely sealing off the entire canyon mouth, although the insect tide was still afraid of death to fill the gully and wanted to rush through the wall of fire, but it was obvious that this was not something that could be done in a short time.

Therefore, the swarm was split into two parts because of this wall of fire.

The main force was still stretching for hundreds of kilometers outside, and the nearly 400,000 vanguard troops were cut off by the waist and completely isolated after pouring into the canyon for several kilometers!

"2nd to 5th Mobile Battalions, ambush lifted! Inject stimulants! According to the C-41 tactical plan, encircle and annihilate the swarm in the canyon! ”

After Jim Renault's order was given, from the mouth of the canyon to the fourth defensive ring, on the steep slopes on both sides, a dense crowd of machine gunners suddenly appeared!

More than 1,000 machine gunners on each side appeared in full gear halfway up the mountain!

As soon as they appeared, they took advantage of the huge advantage of the terrain and adopted a flanking posture, pouring all their ferocious firepower into the dumpling-making insect tide in the canyon below!

Everyone understood what that loud explosion meant!

The heroic sacrifice of 280 machine gunners in the 5th Defense Ring. Let everyone's anger burn, they can't wait to smoke this group of ugly bugs in front of them!

Rage plus doping. Let the combat effectiveness of all soldiers skyrocket, and the C-14 electromagnetic rifles in everyone's hands are all overloaded and shooting!

At this moment, all the soldiers turned into killing machines! Horrific harvesting the lives of the swarms!

Faced with this situation, although the insect tide below tried their best to fight back, they were immediately suppressed. Countless insect tides want to climb the slopes on both sides, but the crawl speed is slow due to the steep cliffs. Often, not long after crawling up, he was completely pierced by countless depleted uranium armor-piercing shells as soon as he raised his head slightly!

And the machine gunners were condescending, taking advantage of the terrain. The range and rate of fire have been greatly increased, and although they are occasionally attacked by the stinging snake below, few bone spurs can penetrate the dense barrage under the suppression of the fire net. Attack the machine gunners.

So for a long time. The Heavy reaps the life of the insect with minimal damage and maximum effort!

That's Jim Reynolds' plan!

Once the insect tide is in, it will be calculated and a part of the insect tide will be introduced into the mouth of the canyon. Then use the dense fire of the Goliath-armed mechs and bunker swarms to withstand the advance of the insect tide.

After sticking to a limit, the number of swarms introduced into the canyon is controlled to a maximum limit.

The heroic self-detonation of the 5th Defense Ring of Tong Guò completely blocked the canyon.

Since then, the 400,000 insects located in the canyon have no follow-up reinforcements. It was about to break through the main firepower network ahead. It was cut off in an instant.

Under the dense fire of the bunkers and Goliath armed mechs in front, the insect tide could not advance or retreat. Jin was covered by a terrifying net of fire and could not break through. Retreat is a terrifying high-temperature flame, and the insects who are most afraid of the high temperature obviously can't retreat.

On both sides are steep slopes, although this is also a way out, but because of the thousands of meters of machine gunners ambushed by Jim Renault in advance, the last hope of escape for the insect tide in the canyon is blocked!

At this time, the insect tide is equivalent to being completely rounded and attacked from three sides! And they are designed step by step by Jim Reynolds's tactics, and in the end they are powerless!

"This is a precious opportunity for our 280 comrades-in-arms to create a zào for us...... We must grasp this fighter plane that has been exchanged for blood and life! Jim Reynold's voice rang in everyone's ears, stirring up the anger of everyone's hatred.

"573 Goliath armed mechs, according to the predetermined plan, go to Heights 3 on the left and Heights 4 on the right! Concentrate your firepower and wipe out all these bugs in the canyon as soon as possible! ”

"Obey the order, sir!"

573 Goliath armed mechs, divided into two torrents of steel. From the No. 2 heights where they were, there was already a pre-dug road to the two platforms on the mountainside.

This path is specially designed for this large mech, so along this path, the Goliath armed mech walks on the steep slopes and travels quickly.

At the same time, when they were marching, the artillery fire in their hands did not stop! And as the position of the Goliath-armed mechs became higher and higher, the density of artillery fire increased dramatically.

The effect of suppressing the fire power of the insect tide below is also becoming more and more obvious!

Finally, when the Goliath-armed mechs arrived at the highland platforms on the mountainsides on both sides, Jim Renault completed the full-dimensional fire coverage of the insect tide in the canyon!

More than 2,000 machine gunners from the 2nd to 5th Mobile Battalions were flanking on both sides, and there were dense fire suppression from 42 pillboxes directly ahead, and clusters of Goliath armed mechs on the upper left and upper right diagonally for three-dimensional fire coverage!

Covered by such all-round and ferocious firepower, and the support of the main force in the rear was lost, the isolated insects in the canyon wanted to counterattack no matter how ferocious, but in the end they were suppressed instantly!

In a moment! In the end, the defending troops of the backwater station base wiped out the 400,000 swarms in the canyon!

At the bloody cost of hundreds of machine gunners, Jim Reynolds finally wiped out 400,000 insects!

This is an incomparably brilliant result!

It is a miracle accomplished by Jim Renault's clever tactics and incomparably precise command, and under the incomparably high morale of all the soldiers, all the defenders of the backwater station base worked together!

However, in the face of such a huge stage victory, Jim Renaud did not have a smile on his face.

He looked at the dark clouds that were flying rapidly in the distance, and his brows furrowed.

This black and oppressive cloud is composed of tens of thousands of flying dragons, and they are like locusts covering the sky and the sun! It makes people feel extremely hopeless.

Jim Reynolds can even see the Sky Guardian magnified thousands of times like a crab and the terrifying Devourer!

This is the main force in the air of this wave of insect tides! They have only appeared on the battlefield at this moment, and the truly brutal battle is just about to begin!

Ye Yu ...... If you don't come back, I'm going to be overwhelmed. ”
